7.2 lbs down in 4 days pre-op!!!!

Hi everyone, Just wanted to share my excitement. I started my pre-op diet on Monday 7/26/04.(I have to lose 10 lbs before my surgery on 8/16/04). I wasn't going to get weighed for 2 weeks but my clothes were feeling loose today and I jumped on the scale. I could'nt believe my eyes, I am down 7.2 lbs!!! Granted I know a lot of it is water, but still!! I have never lost so much so fast in such a short period of time. I feel very encouraged now for my surgery because I know I will lose weight. Thank you all for all the support and for always being here. Fondly, Sandy

WAY TO GO! You have under 3 pounds to go in just over 2 weeks, you are going to fly past that 10 pound requirement in NO TIME! You must be very proud of yourself! Keep it up, Sandy!! Tara

Thanks Tara, It's so encouraging to know that this weight is coming off once and for all! Sandy

Congratulations Sandy! You must be soooo excited. Keep it going! JA

Thanks J A! Sandy

Congratulations Sandy!!! Keep up the good work. Remember that Rome wasn't built in a day. Just stay focused and you will lose the other 2 1/2 pounds so your surgery will happen. This process is hard work but really worth the effort!! May your slide to the losing side be as uneventful and pain free as possible. Linda

Hi LInda Thanks for your kind words, I have no doubts that this weight will come off. I feel so motivated right now and can't wait to be on the other side! Sandy
